Elgin sits in Moray and takes its pollen pattern from the Grampian forecast region. Around 25,000 people live here. Hay fever sufferers should track all three pollen types from March through August.
Tree pollen here is dominated by birch, alder and pine, with grass led by ryegrass and weeds by nettle.
Tree pollen typically peaks in late April. Grass counts are highest from late June to early July. The season runs later than in the south, with birch as the standout tree.
